Vote for home-state Gov. John Kasich in next Tuesday's Ohio primary, not for Marco Rubio, Republicans are being urged ... by Marco Rubio. It's all part of the extraordinary tactics Donald Trump's presidential foes are resorting to in last-ditch efforts to block the party's front-runner. "If you want to stop Trump in Ohio, Kasich's the only guy who can beat him there," Rubio spokesman Alex Conant said Friday in an interview with The Associated Press. In turn, Florida Sen. Rubio is hoping to win in his home state on Tuesday, thereby splitting the day's two big delegate prizes and keeping them out of Trump's hands. While only Kasich can take on Trump in ...

Over the last two weeks, senators Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz have finally begun attacking frontrunner Donald Trump for his glaring shortcomings, especially in the Republican primary debates. They have demanded that the reality TV star be more specific on policy and challenged him on his record of hiring illegal immigrants. They’ve asked about his taxes and pointed out his spotty business record. Trump hasn’t had much of a response, other than ad hominem attacks. Yet many Trump supporters appear unaffected by this demonstration of their candidate’s ignorance. Little substance of these criticisms seems to be getting through. How could this be? A friend of mine overheard a very ...

The 78-year-old psycho who sucker-punched a black protester being led out of a Donald Trump rally says, “Next time we see him, we might have to to kill him!” John McGraw, a cowboy hat-wearing Trump supporter, told Inside Edition minutes after throwing the punch Wednesday in Fayetteville, N.C., that he has no regrets for throwing the brutal blow. “We don’t know who he is. He might be with a terrorist organization,” he said. John McGraw, 78, of Linden, N.C., said there's more than just a punch in store for protesters at Trump rallies. The caught on camera smack came as uniformed personnel led 26-year-old Rakeem Jones from the event full of loyalists to the ...
Ted Cruz’s New Spokesman Busted Hiring Illegal Immigrants

Cruz’s new spokesman Ron Nehring, who served as the previous chairman of the California Republican Party, was “busted” for hiring an illegal immigrant who had been ordered to be deported by the Federal government, had failed to complete an I-9 form, and even sued the U.S. government in a multi-million-dollar wrongful arrest lawsuit. Nehring himself had directly hired the illegal immigrant to serve as chief executive of the Republican Party and to run party operations, including the handling of confidential information. The illegal immigrant hire wasn’t Nehring’s only snafu. Nehring also caused controversy when he hired another immigrant from Canada to serve as ...
Former Bush Chief Of Staff Encourages Administration Alums To Vote Against Trump

Josh Bolten, who served as chief of staff to President George W. Bush, is encouraging alumni of the Bush administration to vote against Donald Trump in the remaining nominating contests, saying the New York businessman “isn’t fit” for the presidency. In an email sent to former administration officials and staffers on Thursday and provided to The Daily Caller by a source, Bolten says: “As a former member of the George W. Bush administration, you know that integrity, decency, and sound judgment are essential qualities for the presidency. Donald Trump, the man who accused President Bush and his team of lying, isn’t fit for the office our former boss held with such ...

Neil Bush, younger brother of President George W. Bush talks to the press after a meeting with Paraguayan President Nicaron Duarte in Asuncion, on Feb. 28, 2008. (NORBERTO DUARTE/AFP/Getty Images) Neil Bush, the son of President George H. W. Bush, who defrauded U.S. taxpayers out of $1.5 billion dollars in the savings and loan scam, and later peddled influence for the Chinese government, (who plied him with Chinese prostitutes) has formally endorsed Senator Ted Cruz for president. You can’t make this stuff up. This endorsement says much. Since the other, more politically involved Bush men have a distinct dislike for Mr. Cruz, I suppose Neil Bush is better than no Bush. Let’s ...

MEGYN KELLY AND DONALD TRUMP By Nelson Hultberg February 9, 2016 NewsWithViews.com I watched the GOP debates from New Hampshire this weekend, but endured only 30 minutes of the Iowa debate. I cannot watch Megyn Kelly without feeling repulsed. She is the hatchet girl for Rupert Murdoch’s Fox Corp to take down Donald Trump’s challenge of the establishment. She fancies herself a daring journalist, but hasn't got the intellect to grasp the big picture, which is what is required to really be daring. Yes, she’s beautiful, but clearly a statist mentality ignorant of the crucial role of ideology in history. This comes through repeatedly in her interviews, which naturally are ...
John Hayward on Tech Mogul Conspiracy to Stop Trump: ‘This Is Exactly What Trump Voters Are Rebelling Against’

Breitbart correspondent John Hayward appeared on Breitbart News Daily on SiriusXM Patriot Ch. 125 this morning and discussed the recent gathering of tech moguls and GOP elites at a resort off the coast of Georgia convened to stop presidential candidate Donald Trump. “If this meeting didn’t exist, Trump would have invented it as a joke,” said Hayward. “He would have made a joke about how all these loser Republican leaders like Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) 44% and Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) 56% are going out there to meet with all these liberal tech CEOs and they’re plotting a way to destroy him.” “They have Karl Rove there – Karl Rove! The guy who melted ...
Donald Trump Is Alienating Neoconservatives—and Antiwar Democrats Should Worry

The neocon meltdown over Donald Trump’s astonishing success in the Republican presidential primaries has been one of the more delightful aspects of the 2016 presidential contest. And yet the temptation to indulge in schadenfreude should be tempered by a foreboding for what might happen—not to the Republican Party, but to the Democratic party, should Trump succeed in securing the nomination, as now looks more and more likely. Writing in The Weekly Standard, William Kristol denounced Trump as “a proud defender of greed, an unabashed indulger in adultery, a wanton mocker of the meek (the “losers”) of this world.” Brookings Institution scholar Robert Kagan took to ...

After winning the day's two biggest prizes in the Republican race for president, Donald Trump was in the mood to celebrate. No, not his wins in Michigan and Mississippi. The front-runner for the GOP nomination wanted to celebrate his skill selling things to eat and drink, among other things, defending business ventures that have increasingly come under attack in ads and in debates.Before Trump's arrival at a news conference at his golf course in Jupiter, Florida, club staff set up displays of Trump-branded products on either side of his podium. There were bottles of Trump red, white and rose wine, cases of Trump water and two butcher blocks heaping with stacks of giant, well-marbled ...

There are a lot of things I could say about Donald J. Trump, but he isn’t responsible for 95% of the problems the Republican Party has today. Do you want to know who is responsible for most of the problems in the Republican Party? It’s the Republican Establishment. “But John, there is no Republican Establishment! In fact, I’d like to see somebody actually name some names. Why don’t you name the Republican Establishment!

Two Spy covers feature Donald Trump, who was frequently criticized in the magazine by co-creators Kurt Andersen and Graydon Carter.Soon after its launch in 1986, the satirical magazine Spy picked Donald Trump as the brash embodiment of a crass age. Founded by Graydon Carter and Kurt Andersen, the magazine chronicled New York's obsessions with wealth and social status, zeroing in on Trump's questionable business dealings (of which there were many) and his outlandish personal traits (of which there were perhaps even more). Carter is now editor of Vanity Fair, and Kurt Andersen is a novelist and host of Public Radio International and WNYC's nationally syndicated show Studio 360. ...

Narcissistic Rage as the Psychodynamic of Trump Derangement Syndrome

< March 8, 2016 Narcissistic Rage as the Psychodynamic of Trump Derangement Syndrome By Deborah C. Tyler The psychodynamics of narcissistic injury and rage have been studied for over a hundred years. Narcissism involves a grandiose and unrealistic self-image of personal perfection, brilliance, exaggerated admirableness, or special ability or powers. This ongoing condition involves a defense mechanism of self-delusion, which is unstable and becomes deranged when confronted by reality. A psychological complex called the narcissistic injury, or mortification, arises from a blow to that unbalanced sense of self-worth. The blow exposes the gap between the narcissistic ideal and the ...

A top Republican consultant whined last week, "Donald Trump is hijacking the Republican Party." Really? This is a common and almost comical complaint these days from the establishment wing of the GOP, the same people who have hijacked the party pretty much since the end of the Reagan era. In his disgraceful rant against Trump on Thursday, Mitt Romney even unveiled a new strategy by the establishment: Keep Trump from getting a majority of the delegates (though he is very likely to win a plurality) and then steal the election from Trump at the convention. Ironically, these are the same people who were making fun of the Democrats for "rigging" their nomination process to ...
The oligarchs' super-PAC anti-Trump savagery

Narrow victories in the Kentucky caucuses and the Louisiana primary, the largest states decided on Saturday, have moved Donald Trump one step nearer to the nomination. Primaries in Michigan, Mississippi and Idaho on March 8, and in Florida, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri and North Carolina on March 15, may prove decisive. If Marco Rubio does not win his home state of Florida, he is cooked, as is Gov. John Kasich if he does not win Ohio. Ted Cruz already looks to be the last man between Trump and a GOP nomination that has gone, in the last seven elections, to George H. W. Bush, Bob Dole, George W. Bush, John McCain and Mitt Romney. All five of those nominees since 1988 seem appalled by ...

This weekend brought us the "feature" of Mitt Romney refusing to disavow an attempt to "draft" him in the Republican convention should it occur, despite the fact that he would not have received one vote in a Primary or Caucus. There was also the outrageous gang-bang played on Trump in the latest "debate" which featured the moderators using media clips from Romney -- not the other candidates, the moderators. Let me point something out for the Republican establishment that may not have sunk in yet, but it had damn well better, and soon: Yes, this is a revolt -- it's a revolt by the citizens against you. We're revolting because we're tired of your ...

It's really quite-simple. Trump has put on the table a promise to stop them from stealing from the United States. Yes, stealing. First, in national defense. Europe steals something around $100 billion in national defense spending that they ought to be spending every year, but we end up covering. Trump has made clear he intends to put a stop to that crap whether it's Mexico by stopping their citizens, including their drug dealers, from invading the United States or other nations that enjoy our personnel and weaponry protecting their land and people instead of them expending their own money and personnel. But second, and far more importantly, is found in medical care and drugs ...

Republican presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (Texas) said on Sunday that the media is sitting on explosive negative information about front-runner Donald Trump with plans to run it later in the year to tear the candidate apart. "I think an awful lot of reporters — I can't tell you how many media outlets I hear, you know, have this great exposé on Donald, on different aspects of his business dealings or his past, but they said, 'You know what? We're going to hold it to June or July,'" Cruz said on CBS's "Face The Nation" Sunday. "We're not going to run it now." Cruz said the media has given the front-runner ...
Donald Trump Named ‘Islamophobe Of The Year’ By Islamic Campaign Group

U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump continued his winning streak last night, taking first place in the “satirical” Islamophobe of the Year Award. The prize was awarded at a gala dinner in London last night in Mr. Trump’s absence — not an unusual state of affairs, given that none of the nominees are usually invited and applications for tickets have in the past gone unanswered. The ceremony was hosted by the British-based Islamic Human Rights Commission (IHRC), a Shia-dominated, “Khomenist”, Hezbollah-sympathising pressure group which has campaigned on behalf of convicted Islamist terrorists, as previously reported by Breitbart London. Although the event ...
